Hi everyone,
I have recently been referred for an ADHD assessment as a result of years of struggles with depression and anxiety. I have had various psychiatric assessments and even had a previous dx of Bipolar 2. As a result of the ADHD referral I have also read a lot about Aspergers and can relate a lot to the symptoms so wanted to join to get more info... my main struggles are socialising and work issues, I have had 23 jobs in 23 years and and a number have lead to bad depression and anxiety.
 
I can really relate. I have depressiona nd anxiety (on meds for now) and adhd. I also have obsessive tendencies and thoughts but never could get a straightforward answer from my psychiatrist if I had ocd >.>

Anyway, welcome to the forum! The people here are generally friendly and are always helpful in answering almost any subject of question. There's plenty of 'interest' threads and some ranting ones too if you ever need them. And forum games if you're into that.

Hi Jb. Welcome to AF (AC)!!!

I am not used to the name change here, but expect I will get it down soon.

This is an excellent place to find out more about Aspergers and the rest of the Autism Spectrum. It also happens to be full of nice, helpful people.
